Liang Shi, 56, has failed China's intense college entry exam for the 27th time, per AFP. The self-made millionaire who started taking the test in 1983 harbors dreams of going to university. After all, the former factory worker has his own construction materials business and is a millionaire, per AFP. "It's an uncomfortable thought that I didn't manage to get a college education," Liang told AFP earlier this month. "It's hard to say whether I will keep on preparing for the next year," he told AFP.

Liang took the grueling two-day exam, known as the “gaokao,” in early June alongside nearly 13 million students nationwide. Students’ exam results are their only criteria for college admission – and most candidates only get one shot, with the test happening once a year. “It may be a little difficult if I want to go to a good university this year,” he said in the video. He’d even accepted that Sichuan University might be out of reach, deciding to attend any “key university” that would accept him. Ahead of this year’s test, many students visited temples to light incense and pray for good results.
